Moving forward, not back
may not be as simple as
what we thought it would be
because it sometimes means
not only letting go of comfort
but also having nothing to hold on to
not only being unable to picture the end-result
but also lingering in the in-between
and not only needing to learn more
but also needing to unlearn what was
implanted in our psyche by
this crooked society.
Then, maybe moving forward
requires us to access our inner strength
and grow in the direction
we’re actually meant to go.
